The msn.com Home Page features a four-word click/lead line that contains three "punchlines:" "Journalism diplomas feature typos" - low hanging fruit for a blog like this (http://www.msn.com/). Upon first reading I chuckled at "diplomas" having "typos." Upon second reading, I chuckled because ironically they are "Journalism" diplomas...
The third "punchline" actually comes to light after going to the link for the line; to me it read like each diploma featured more than one typo, plural. When you read the linked article however, you fined out that a number of diplomas (plural) featured only one typo each... and on top of that, only some of the Journalism Diplomas featured even the singular typo - not all of them... Such inconsistency in Journalism... (www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/school-makes-typo-journalism-graduates-diplomas-n138131)
I think this story pretty much flirts/toys with itself and needs no further attention from me :).
